Hi guys,

I'm about to export a 535i with Nav pkg into Canada and wonder if it will work up here or do I need to install new software?

Thanks,
Bryan

I brought up a 2006 525Xi up from California to Vancouver B.C. in December. The car has a nav package as well and it works just fine. It had the 2005.2 version (works), and I up graded to the 2007.2 version.

The most recent version from Navteq has parts of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and Saskatchewan. I'm not sure about previous versions. What version does your car have and where will you be located?

Not sure what version but it is an '08 535i so I presume it's the latest version and I'm in Ontario (near Toronto).

Map coverage in Ontario is good from 2005-1 onward.

I found out yesterday that the latest version 2008-1 even includes the goat trail my brother-in-laws cottage is on. That's north of Peterborough.

Watch out for Toronto potholes when you get here.

Cheers
